Super empowering, Anna! I feel, particularly as women, we doubt ourselves and want to be *absolutely certain* we can fulfil something to 100% before we start, but that just isn't realistic. Also love the Out There / Right Here visual - going to take that one with me.

We do doubt ourselves don't we! I don't know if that ever fully goes away? But it's about pushing through, and quietening it over time.

You’re speaking to me, Anna! Have had things bouncing around my brain for years but fear of not being interesting enough, qualified or even relevant kept me for even taking the first step (or word I should say 😂)

I like your “out there/right here” definitely going to start pushing through and take my advice I’m always giving to others!

It’s so much easier to give other people advice than it is to take the same advice on board for ourselves. I hope I’ve given you the little shove you needed 🙃

Absolutely! Turning that self doubt into FOMO for myself, productive gaslighting I guess 😂

Really good advice, thank you for sharing it.

Many people are afraid of failure, false hope or disappointment; so they never try anything new.

But in the end, not trying is just guaranteed failure.

Anna, thank you for such a raw and honest post. Your journey of embracing vulnerability and sharing your fears really resonated with me—I’ve felt that paralyzing fear of judgment too. Your learn-do-teach framework is not only practical but also empowering, gently reminding us that every lesson, every experience, is valuable and worth sharing!
